We have a nice shot to jump out 6-2.

We'll need to, because the back half of the season will be white knuckling it, just trying to hold on.

But as always, just take care of your division games, and usually you're in position.
I said the same thing to a co worker this morning...I like the start of the season. I had a strong sense we get a prime time game the first week...I thought it would be against the Packers.

Steelers are tough no matter when you get them, but I'm happy they won't have Martavis Bryant for this one due to suspension.

Still the offense is going to need to be on point, because even if we load up on defense in the draft I can't see us having much answer for Antonio Brown deep and LeVeon Bell at the same time.

We get that Steelers game and we're in business.

Yeah, you know your opponents for next year as soon as the regular season ends. We've known who we were playing for months, now we just know when.

since we ended up in the top 2 of the NFC east, i thought we played the top 2 teams of a specific NFC division .. not play the no. 1 team of the 2 NFC divisions (who we dont play 4 against obviously).

did they do away with that?

In the late 90's.

1995-1998 NFL scheduling formula[edit]
When the divisions were balanced between 1995 and 1998, each team would play a home and away series against their divisional rivals (8 games), two teams from each of the other divisions within the conference (two having finished the same place, and two others determined by where they placed in the standings), and four teams from a division in the other conference by the aforementioned rotary basis (where the team placed in the standings determines which team in the interconference division they will not play, and that team would have the "polar opposite" place.
From '78- '95, the formula was similar but slightly different.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nation...duling_formula

The way I remembered it, 1st & 4th's played each other and 2nd & 3rd's played each other.

I think the schedule is pretty damn brutal. Going to go on record and say we'll be lucky to make it to the playoffs.

I totally agree with you. If we get off to a slow start, it's going be brutal.

Re: 2016 NFL Schedule Release

Week 12 through week 16 is a killer stretch...outside of that, I think it's pretty average.

Meeting cincy on a neutral field as an away game is good. Even though it's neutral, we keep our home game.

Teams like Vikings and packers...I don't worry about them as much especially at home. Packers were terrible last year and Vikings...ap is a year older and bridgewater hasn't shown the ability to get the ball down the field.

Pittsburgh at home first game is ideal...I rather get them right off the bat before they get that offense in gear mid season.

That bye week is perfect.

The Packers beat the crap out of us at Fedex in our playoff game.
